Deon Sanders had had an impact on college football. Brutally honest. A player's coach. But you had better love the game.
"Colorado football coach Deion Sanders wasted no time in rebuilding the team?s roster after taking over the program in December. In the 2022 campaign, the Buffaloes finished 1?11, resulting in the firing of former head coach...cutting many players from last year?s team which allowed him to bring in 57 transfers and 56 newcomers to the program."
"Currently, only 10 players who were on scholarship from last year?s squad remain on this year?s roster as the Buffaloes prepare to start the season. "
?I know it was a huge overhaul, but it had to be done,? Sanders said. ?It was tremendously tough, because you had some young men that just didn?t want to play the game, they didn?t love football. It?s hard for me to be effective if you don?t love it. ? It?s tremendously tough when you?re looking at a body of just dead eyes. That?s tough on any coach, not just me. I?m sure a multitude of coaches have experienced that until they could clean house and get the roster they want.?
